As a mine repping pro.... you have to have at least 4+ mines to get a good mine rep kill. a 3 mine stacks just wont do the job in most cases. So change the setting to 2 or 3 mines and you might as well ban the mine repping play style and tell those people to leave the zone. As it is with Hallu's cutting the mine life in 1/2 (he cut the time from 2 minute to 1 minute of how long a mine stays alive and didnt tell anyone for weeks) he has already made it very difficult to even get a mine rep. It makes it even HARDER to do solo. only a turret with multiple people can even get a mine stack down fast enough to have time to try and get a mine rep.
you have to lay a full stack of mines, recharge your energy to be safe, and get someone near your mine stack in 60 seconds before the mines disappears. O and by the way his logic that this modification was to help newbies... total bull*&^$#$#$. Mines are the NUMBER 1 way that new people to the zone can even get a kill. A new person enters the zone he isn't going to be able to out fly a pro player, however he can lay mines and then hope and pray he gets a kill. But now its very hard for a newbie to get 4 mines down and try to get a mine rep before they start to disappear on him.
i think its interesting that lately hallu is changing the mine life time, the number of mines that can be dropped and other turret settings. however he isn't running around cutting the EMP damage of the weasel in 1/2, or removing fast fire rate from ship 8. hmmm its almost like he is targeting a play style.... hmmmmm
